Anti-Stress Classic Massage
Massage as a Lifestyle
Massage is a therapeutic practice that involves manual or mechanical action on the soft tissues of the body such as muscles, tendons, ligaments and skin and is an important part of a holistic approach to maintaining health and well-being.
The difference between classic massage and relaxation massage lies primarily in the objectives and techniques used in each case. The most important differences are:
CLASSIC MASSAGE
GOALS
- Relieve tension
- Improve circulation and skin condition
- Relax muscles
- Increase mobility
Classic massage is a general method for improving well-being and prevention, but it can also be used to treat specific conditions or injuries.
RELAXING MASSAGE or
ANTI-STRESS MASSAGE
GOALS
- Relieve stress
- Promote deep relaxation
- Improve overall well-being
This type of massage can be beneficial as part of a regular self-care and stress prevention program, as well as a means of recovery after stressful periods in life.
Special attention is given to the head, neck, and shoulder areas, as these zones are often prone to tension due to stress.
As an experienced and creative massage therapist, I incorporate elements of various massage techniques into my treatments to meet your individual needs and preferences. I always strive for clarity and precision to provide you with the best relaxing therapy.
It is recommended to schedule a massage as soon as the need arises. If you wait too long, tension may increase, and stress levels may rise.
Some people may feel significant improvement after one session, while others may need regular visits to achieve and maintain the effect.
